With Carmelo these 3 are the consensus best freshmen ever. It really pisses me off when people say Davis and Durant were better freshmen than him.
Davis had a team that would have won without him. You put 5 star Wiltjer in his spot in the starting lineup they still win it all.
Durant's Texas team was WAY worse than Rick Barnes squad the year before and after. They lost 10 games and got pantsed badly by USC in the round of 32. Year before they were Elite 8 same with the year after he left. Roster was loaded with talent of course 5 star after 5 star just like Davis's UK team.
2003 Syracuse is an NIT team without Carmelo.
